Night Photography

Thank you Linda for taking the time to teach me the significance of the scenes settings on my camera. I had a very nice Minolta SLR camera and became interested in photography when my camera was stolen from my home by a family friend we later discovered had an addiction problem. The loss of the camera became a disappointment that took my mind and energy away from pursuing photography any further. Then, I bought a nice Nikon Coolpix camera and thought I would again try to take pictures. The pictures would not download to my computer and I had no idea why it was so problematic. I talked to Nikon and had such a bad experience with their customer service that the German and Irish came out in me. I was ready to absolutely fed up with Nikon. I since began to struggle with taking pictures regardless, and got a new computer with a card slot to read the pictures from it, instead of transferring the pictures via the USB port, which never did work, nor did the Nikon software. I developed an aversion to this camera, Nikon and a belief it was beyond my comprehension.
With this class, I feel much more competent and pleased with the pictures I have taken. I am starting to open up that creative part of my soul again that will allow me to share images, experiences and friends and family with everyone. I am very grateful for taking this class and your ability to lead such a workshop, Linda. I think I may owe Nikon an apology...( the add pic icon on this post is not working, sorry)
